SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Rocket Puts on Light Show in Sunday’s Sky
According to Ars Technica,
We’d love to see any photos that you managed to get. Please upload them in the comment section.After it separated from the second stage, the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket arrested its forward movement, and began falling back toward Earth. It, too, found success in landing at a new site north of Los Angeles. This marked the first time a Falcon 9 rocket had landed on the West Coast, and was SpaceX’s 30th landing of a first stage overall.

Jade Helms
The Jade Helm 15 conspiracy theories were based on the Jade Helm 15 United States military training exercise which took place in multiple U.S. states in the summer of 2015, starting on July 15 and ending on September 15. The announcements of these training exercises raised concerns and led to speculative interpretations that were characterized by The New York Times as “travers[ing] the outer edges of political paranoia”
Saw it in Mckinleyville up by Dows Prairie area. I thought it was a helicopter at first.
I have a few more if you want them
Saw it in Bayside, so thankful that you published this story as I was wondering what the heck it was…watched it for awhile through binoculars and then went inside to get my camera and by the time I got back out, it was gone.
I have more if you want them
“Can we have some more, please?”
I thought I was trippin’ when I saw this earlier. Thanks rhbb for keeping me sane.
just because you see something you dont understand, is that really a reason to go insane?
educate yourself
How judgmental.
And education IS what just happened.
Well. Kinda. What is space X falcon 9 rocket? And what is it’s true mission? Educate your self or just say, “ooooo pretty lights”!
That’s a pretty thin thread to be hangin’ from, CB!
Thanks RHBB! I wouldn’t have known what this was without you. Saw it as I was leaving Gville on AP Rd. It was just getting dark.
This weapon is going to surpass the beauty of the neutron bomb.
It’s the most beautiful weapon ever dreamed of, hitting it’s target and the trails following it up weeks after.
The neutron bomb was the pinnacle, leaving the buildings, but this is so much more.
Warfare and population control didn’t really become an art until the late 70’s, now with this marvel a bold, brave future begins to emerge.
Wonderful launch…..

Rabbit hole, thanks.
CAPABILITIES & SERVICES
SpaceX offers competitive pricing for its Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launch services. Modest discounts are available, for contractually committed, multi-launch purchases. SpaceX can also offer crew transportation services to commercial customers seeking to transport astronauts to alternate LEO destinations.
How does this ” surpass the beauty of the neutron bomb.”? It is not a bomb at all.
It’s always about a weapon, always.
Humans never spend billions to better mankind, only to manipulate or destroy. Not totally agreeing with Yknot but…… “don’t belive the hype”. The “phone”’you are holding is not a “service”, it’s a tool for manipulation and control.

From so cal last year same thing..
Saw it from the Arcata Bottom. At first assumed it was a plane on approach to the airport. But it just got brighter and got no closer. Next time I see something like this I will know what it is.
I guess I’m out of the loop. So this thing- it’s a very expensive way to use up vast resources for rich people, right? And you are all here in awe and in wonder of the beauty of the glory of rich people using up vast resources for their unending ego gratification?! Because you get to see an extra light in the sky?!!.Or maybe I’m totally wrong….please tell me it’s some humanitarian advance.
It uses way less resources than NASA built rockets, and if you’re using the internet, you’re making use of communications satilites.
I like the way you think on this one, Farce! I am not impressed. Humbug. I do not want lights in the sky that are not natural celestial bodies. Not one bit. I didn’t vote for this thing, why is it happening?
Do you know how much tech is in everyday use because of the space industry? I think you have no idea.
BioTech is Godzilla
Certainly breathes fire.
This is actually a weapon system with the race to complete it very out in the open. The major powers are trying to complete the program of anti matter weaponry.
Once completed it will be used to reduce the population of mankind over the planet to a sustainable level.
Who finishes first gets to create the new world.
But whoever finishes second tries harder.
Dude, Elon Musk is not “rich people” … he is an alien in disguise.
I’ve got some very short video of this, taken in willits. It was amazing. We had no idea what this was but we knew it was not the usual aircraft that we see day to day.

Huge Hole Burned in the Ozone Layer That’s the facts
Did Estelle and bone and sunberg max out our general fund to put up another spy sattilite to destroy the lives of there constitutes??????????????

A rat done bit my sister Nell.

Her face and arms began to swell.
(and Whitey’s on the moon)
I can’t pay no doctor bill.

Ten years from now I’ll be payin’ still.
(while Whitey’s on the moon)
The man jus’ upped my rent las’ night.
(’cause Whitey’s on the moon)
No hot water, no toilets, no lights.
(but Whitey’s on the moon)
I wonder why he’s uppi’ me?
(’cause Whitey’s on the moon?)
I was already payin’ ‘im fifty a week.
(with Whitey on the moon)
Taxes takin’ my whole damn check,
Junkies makin’ me a nervous wreck,
The price of food is goin’ up,
An’ as if all that shit wasn’t enough
A rat done bit my sister Nell.
(with Whitey on the moon)
Her face an’ arm began to swell.
(but Whitey’s on the moon)
Was all that money I made las’ year
(for Whitey on the moon?)
How come there ain’t no money here?
(Hm! Whitey’s on the moon)
Y’know I jus’ ’bout had my fill
(of Whitey on the moon)
I think I’ll sen’ these doctor bills,
Airmail special
(to Whitey on the moon)
Thank you! Gil said it way better than I ever could…
There is a great video of this launch and return taken from the rocket itself. Shows all phases of the mission including the separation of the Argentine satellite it put in orbit and its successful return to earth. Very impressive.
Probably a satellite to track us all via smartphone,and using the new chips in all our credit cards. Next California and the board of supervisors is gonna wanna put that chip in our heads and charge us an annual fee for rent,or a permit fee.that way they can just shut us off if we can’t come up with the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$#$$$$
The new pot plant seeking LIDAR!
